Installing new rims and rear tires Saturday so taking opportunity to align as well. I need some help figuring out alignment specs to give installer.

Car is 2004 40th Anniversary Edition on 030 suspension w/ 235/40/18x8" fronts & 295/30/18x10.5" rears. Street use but very "spirited" street use

I'll help you out, but be careful what you ask for as I use the car for autocross and while I do drive it on the street, I probably drive a bit more...sideways than most. See my sig picture, I guess.

Maximum camber in the front, period. It's only around -0.7 degrees at most.

For the rear, you can run at most about -2.2, but I would recommend 1.7-2.0ish. The caveat of running all that negative camber is that you will wear the rear tires quickly unless you try to get as close to zero toe as possible. Running zero toe will make the rear end very loose off throttle, so be warned.

I also try to put in just enough toe in in the front to take the slack out of the steering and keep the car going straight. So basically as little as the machine can measure/the mechanic can adjust.

That's how I run my car but if you aren't willing to be disciplined with the throttle it can get you in trouble.

Out of curiosity, what camber did you get in the front? I have a pretty similar alignment to knfeparty.

I believe this is factory street alignment.

I can scan my spec sheet next week when I get back to FL, but that sheet looks reasonable.
